Is there anything made that will help destroy, rid and vanquish these menaces? All my fish died with in 4 days, by examine them I suspect Oodinium. I can wait for 6 to 8 weeks I just want to be sure. Also will they affect the bio wheels in the penguin 400s?how to prevent this from happening again? Thanks

I think your best bet is to leave that tank fishless for 6 weeks or so, the parasite will die without a host fish. Copper would work but you shouldn't use it in your main tank unless you don't plan on any corals or inverts.
